Air2O and Liquid Load Banks Partner to Deliver End-to-End Cooling and Commissioning Solutions for AI-Driven Data Centers
Air2O, a leader in advanced thermal management technologies, has joined forces with Liquid Load Banks (LLB), a specialist in infrastructure commissioning solutions, to offer a holistic approach to testing and cooling for high-density, AI-centric data centers.
The strategic partnership aims to address the rising need for reliable and scalable infrastructure as artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads push the limits of current systems.
AI Era Demands a New Standard in Cooling and Testing
As AI-driven applications increase computational requirements, data centers are rapidly transitioning from traditional air-cooled systems to high-efficiency liquid cooling technologies. With this shift, accurate commissioning and validation of power and thermal infrastructure become critical to ensure operational integrity and system uptime.
David Starr, CEO of Liquid Load Banks, said, "Data center performance depends on the flawless integration of electrical and mechanical systems.”
He added, "Our relentless pursuit of quality, precision and performance guide every engineering decision we make. With precision testing and real-world performance simulation, the patent pending LLB 670 Liquid Load Bank ensures that data center technology cooling systems and electrical infrastructure meet the highest operational and reliability standards."

Manufacturing Expansion to Support Market Growth
Sullivan stated that the partnership was founded on exceptional engineering and a strong mutual respect for each other's expertise. He noted that data center operators could rely on a comprehensive cooling and testing solution, built to the highest standards, to support their expansion in the AI era.
Under the agreement, Air2O will integrate LLB’s testing solutions into its customized thermal designs, delivering a turnkey infrastructure validation and cooling solution.
Air2O will also manufacture the LLB systems at its soon-to-launch 200,000-square-foot facility in Phoenix, Arizona, scheduled to open in June 2025. This move enhances production capabilities and shortens lead times for deployment.
